For all those using email to communicate with clients and people in general it is good to have their own signature on the end of each message. For those who don’t use email signature maybe it is time to start using it because it is not hard to make your own.

Take a look at the pictures above and see how to navigate to settings. Select account you want to have signature – if you have more than one – and choose View settings for this account on the right panel. When you choose View settings for this account, new window will appear. There you have all relevant details about that account like account name, email address, your email, organization… After that it comes Signature text box and few options for making your email signature.
To make email signature you have more than one option. It can be done by adding file which is prepared in-front and ready for attach – in our example it will be image file. Choose Attach the signature from a file instead (text, HTML, or image) & click on Choose button. Navigate to your image and it will appear like signature when you start to write new email.
